Nordost reference jumpers vs second set of cables


Hi,

My sound system is finally almost complete, and it sounds incredible. I just got a pair of PS Audio BHK300 amps for my B&W 803 D3 speakers. These amps have 2 sets of binding posts to go to the speakers. I only have one pair of speaker cables, so I tried using both cables on one amp, with one going to LF and the other to HF, and it obviously sounds a bit qbetter than using the B&W stock jumper cables. 

The cables are Nordost Heimdall 2. Do you think it would sound better to buy another set of Heimdall 2 speaker cables, or go with a slightly cheaper option of buying the nordost reference jumpers? I won't be able to demo the jumper cable option.

If you are a high roller get another set of Heimdall's. Otherwise the cheap B&W jumpers will do just fine! And save you thousands!

Why do many here think that two or three inches of metal have an effect upon the sound of a speaker? 

I am sure that Synergistic Research will be happy to sell you a cryo-ed Rhodium-plated pair of jumpers for $500!
